HUGHES SEEKS DAUBER VOTE

Neck Shaved High. I
(From N. Y.' Morning Telegraph.) j
Charles Evans Hughes is making a
.nijong play for ibo 'barber vote.}
When he reached headquarters yes
terday, fresh from Providence, his
Immediate- entourago was astonished
to ace that ho had Just had a close
shave.
From this tho gentle reader is not
to rush to the conclusion that Mr.
Hughos hud parted with his luxuries
whiskers. No, his beard was in full
position, all right; but Mr. Hughes
was wearing ono of thoBe wonderful
Chicago "round haircuts," and tho
back of his neck was shaved so high
that the hairline/descended scarcely
at all below the top's of his ears.
Of courso this work of art gave
the candidate the ' appearance ot be
ing a highbrow, no matter whether
one spied him going or coming;' but
lt would bo hard Indeed to convince
anyone that the former justice was
after the highbrow vote by the neck
vhave route. .Plainly and beyond all
question tho republican candidate is
seeking tho moral and electoral sup

Self-Restraint.
(From Ohio State Journal.)
William Allen White, sneaking ot
tho progressive convention, nays:
"For thc progressives are showing
remarkable self-restraint.
if that is so, it would be a frantic
day if they would let themselves out;
it would bo like "tho earthquake roll
ing back in swift and mountainous
ruin." That 90-mlnato yell for Roose
velt might bo referred to as an in
stnnco of progressive self-restraint
Wo suppose to Mr. White it was no
more than a zephyr meandering about
a rose bush: When thc progressives
cease their self-restraint, we want <o
bo near a trench that wo can hop in
to at the first roar of'their silence.
